Series five of The Louis Theroux Podcast is set to launch next week with another impressive line-up of guests.
Louis will kick off the series with Bella Ramsey, the breakout star of The Last of Us. Other guests include rapper and actress Little Simz, Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn, fellow documentarian John Wilson, and longevity enthusiast Bryan Johnson – known as ‘the man who wants to live forever’ – alongside other major names yet to be announced.
Since its launch in 2023, the show has featured unique interviews that uncover unheard anecdotes, reveal shocking truths and lean into the kind of awkward silences that only Louis can pull off. The podcast consistently dominates both the Spotify and Apple charts.
Louis says: “I’m thrilled to be launching season five of The Louis Theroux Podcast. More great guests, more unexpected conversation, more surprising revelations, with the occasional awkward pause thrown in.
“It’s like they used to say about Aero chocolate bars – ‘it’s the bubbles of nothing that make it really something.’ With thanks to all the guests who joined me on the pod – amazing musicians, artists, actors, filmmakers, and thinkers.
“Please come and be part of the all-you-can-eat buffet of free-form conversation and fill your bellies with cheeky and insightful questions (and answers).”
The Louis Theroux Podcast is a Spotify podcast from Mindhouse, available on all podcast providers with video exclusively on Spotify. Series five will be available from Tuesday 6 May.
